How do you copy slides with this unit and is it one by one?

The slides are inserted from the top (the negatives are inserted from the side). The slides are scanned one at a time. I was happier with the scan quality for slides, which was great for me as my family had OODLES of slides. My tech-phobic family cruised through a carousel of slides in 30 minutes.

I have only fooled with this a little, but yes, you insert the slides one at a time and the slide is scanned to a memory card (you supply). I think there is a way to scan to a file on your computer but I haven't been home to try all the features. The operation is very simple, there is a way to specify bw negatives, color negative, or slides. I am a little concerned about the quality of the images, but I need to get an image from a slide I've had professionally scanned, and then compare the two scans.

If you've ever used one of those top-loaded Slide Viewers, it's pretty much the same. Slide goes in top slot, capture image, remove slide, and so on. Note other user comments about difficulty in removing slides. You really want to push them in firmly to avoid image cropping, which makes for a tight fit. I have had no problems removing slides but you may want to keep a pair of tweezers or needle-nose pliers handy.

There are instructions that come with the unit that explain how to connect to your computer. It may seem difficult but in fact it is an easy process. To transfer 90 slides it takes about an hour considering that you have to remove the slides from their tray, place them in stacks, insert them in the unit and wait till the slide is shown on the screen then press a switch to make the transfer, remove the slide and place it back into the tray. If the slides are not in a tray it will be much faster. Once you get a system going it really is simple and fast. I did not have film to transfer but I am sure the process is similar as a film holder is included in the package.Good Luck There are instructions that come with the unit that explain how to connect to your computer.

I'm not sure how many photos the memory can hold (I use a USB for mine) but yes it runs as a slide show. I will warn you though, if you have edited the photos in any way the frame will not read them.

i put my Dad's old slides in this and it scanned to my computer. i haven't tried the 110 film yet but the slides worked great

Saved as a JPEG. You have to take the slide apart, so if you want to keep them this is not the scanner to use

I also have thousands of slides that I want to digitize. The 8600 does scan slides, but only if you remove them from their mounts. My advice: Buy a dedicated slide scanner instead.

You put a few in the plastic frame, one slot or space for each slide...4 or 5. Of course you can load just one if you want to. Then you slowly feed the device through an opening at your right side. See in the screen the first picture and carefully center, digitalize and save, then feed in into next picture....until done. You will get practice it is really fast. Good luck!!!

Haven't used to convert slides. Used for old photos. We converted enough photos to put a High School year book to shame. Fast, convenient, and good quality. Very simple to use. Only problem with photos are the 8X10 and larger. Don't use for that. Stand alone or computer connection makes this thing great. Buy another micro SD though. Hope this helps.

I've only used it twice that way and had no problem. It was saved as a power point slide show. I don't know about one not saved to go straight to slide show. I've used several through the computer and had no problem.

No, it doesn't. I transfer the scanned pictures to my computer when the memory fills up, about 45 slides, enough to do a tray of slides. You will have to purchase an sd card.

There are two holders, one accommodates a strip of negative film, and the other accommodates four slides, and you advance it manually after each slide finishes scanning. Both are just linear holders that insert in a slot on one side of the unit and pass through to the other side.

I've only done old Kodak slides. It can take as long as 10 mins or as little as 30 secs depending on the setting.

Sorry this was quite a while ago and I don't remember anything except it served a temporary purpose for me. It worked well and I could see all my slides so I could transfer them to a disc. Sorry I can't say more than that. I had no use for it after that and don't know where it is.

I've just used it for slide scanning, and it's a manual, one at a time operation, but it goes remarkably fast. I literally had hundreds of slides and I was surprised at how quickly I was able to scan them once I got in a rhythm.

Now that I do not know. I would think so though. My computer is a couple of years old. It worked perfect for me. I enjoyed it so much and looked through old 35mm slides that went back to the late 50's, printed a bunch of them. I converted a storage box full of old slides. Could hardly pull myself from the computer during that time. Excellant buy for me.

No, this unit just converts slides (color or black and white) to a memory device so that the slide can be printed as a picture or viewed online.

extend the slides until you can see two black plastic tabs that you squeeze together. Once you do that, the slides will come apart. It's hard to explain without a picture, so if you still need help, let me know and I'll take a picture to attach.
